While my kids are all older than Melissa and Doug, and I'm a little lactose intolerant when it comes to cheese, I did thoroughly enjoy the Jacob Black clip. Thank you for that, and now I need a cup of tea.

Erica and Christy

About Us

We're writers who met virtually at the 2010 Writeoncon and then met physically at the Writer's Institute in WI in 2011.
Since then we started this blog together, continue to meet through emails, write fiction for young adults, and take care of our children and their laundry.

Together, we wrote a YA mystery novel called THE TEXT MESSAGE. When all seventeen-year-old Nea wanted was for her lazy slob of a brother, Derek, to leave her alone, she didn’t mean forever. Now he's missing and all she has is a text message as a lead to his whereabouts.

Christy is published under the pen name Cecelia Earl. Her novel is available now!

We are trying to communicate that which lies in our deepest heart, which has no words, which can only be hinted at through the means of a story. And somehow, miraculously, a story that comes from deep in my heart calls from a reader that which is deepest in his or her heart, and together from our secret hidden selves we create a story that neither of us could have told alone."— Katherine Paterson
